Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - London EDP
This one's a stunner, blurring the lines between fruity gourmand and sophisticated leather. It's divisive only among leather purists, otherwise, London is a crowd-pleasing, luxurious scent that will get you noticed.
Statement
Our Verdict - London Extrait
London chases the dark oud-violet opening and raspberry-leather heart of WIDIAN's own London, delivering a recognisable oud-fruit-leather shape at extrait strength, though the dupe's oud reads simpler than the Dubai house's dense, resinous original.
